The road has not been easy for “Dance Mom’s” star Abby Lee Miller. After completing her prison sentence last year, the famed dance instructor was diagnosed with non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma. But if anything, Abby has proven she is a fighter and is not ready to hang up the dance shoes. The new season of Dance Moms follows Abby as she rebuilds her dance company while battling the after-effects of cancer that has left her confined to a wheelchair. Abby is ready to get back to her life and do what she loves most…teaching students to dance! With the goal of putting her life, health and dance studio back together, Abby returns to where it all began – the Abby Lee Dance Company in Pittsburgh.

Dance Moms follows children's early steps on the road to stardom along with their doting mothers all under Abby Lee Miller's discerning eyes. Presenting a powerful cast of characters, the show immerses itself in the highs and lows surrounding dance competition season, delivering a captivating and dramatic look at the cast's intense pursuit of National Dance titles. Centered on the devoted Miller, who runs Abby Lee Dance Company with an iron tap shoe as she instructs her young, talented students while also dealing with impassioned mothers who go to great lengths to help their children's dreams come true, Dance Moms is about what really goes on behind-the-scenes in the fast-growing and controversial sport of competitive dance.

Kelly was right about how paige and brookes costumes were always so last minute, like how fair is that?

[chocolatechips.]

Could you imagine paying thousands of dollars for your kid to dance and all you ask for is a proper fitting costume and you're the problem? It's mind-blowing 😂

[inluvwmayy]

metamorphosis was one of my favourite brooke solos she slayed so hard!!

[danielallen]

Abby's impression of Kelly being the victim was hilarious I was dead😂😂😂😂💀☠️

[siennasoye]

i always loved brookes solos. Brooke was so flexible!!!

[arizia]

Abby loves to blame people for her mistakes.

[Mary-wtfk]

I miss season 1 when Abby was actually caring and supportive when someone was injured rather than immediately fussing about how bad it is for her and her reputation

[Seeratlvly-rdry]

Abby: cares for Brooke when she hurts her shoulder and is proud of her

Also Abby: I’m disappointed in the routines

[Pxie]

Chloe actually got second! They were showing Brooke’s division and not Chloe’s. 😢

[TheDsgrant]

Kelly's dress was so cute. She was the best-dressed mom in my opinion

[emmyjo]

They were on this tour, weeks away from home, Kelly and Holly had to leave their other children. Christi had Clara who was a toddler with them. The hotel was a flea pit, but it is all about Abby and how hard it was for her.

[sngray]

Brooke and Paige definitely weren’t given fair treatment for their costumes on Dance Moms! 💔 And I love how Abby blames everyone else instead of taking ownership of her own mistakes. smdh.

[Asmodeus]

I hate how Abby always placed the blame on the dancer and never considered maybe her choreography sucked

[kristinevitale]

Paige's costume was clearly too big...Kelly could have asked one of the other mothers if she could borrow a costume for Paige instead of pulling the number. Brooke's costume for her solo Metamorphosis was beautiful.

[jessicalavin]

“You can talk like that in your house but don’t talk like that around my dancers”
I wonder if Abby knows that the kids all live with there parents

[bmk]

abby: i have not pulled a number in years
also abby: pulls paige and nia’s duet because holly is being too mean to her

[Lavender_rain]

No one:


Abby in the thumbnail:👁️👄👁️

[ralphealcoty]

Why did Abby keep assigning Brooke contortion/acrobatic solos when she knew they only worsened her body as she got older 🤦🏾‍♂️?

[bvntM]

I loved all of their costumes!!! But like Kelly was right abt then getting their costumes at the last minute. And dang did Chloe even place in the top 10?

[BLIGESEDITING]

the fact Brooke tries to avoid her moms kiss
